Ride with confidence

The Uber experience was built with safety in mind. Through incident prevention tools and technology that keeps you connected, we’re dedicated to helping you move safely and focus on what matters most.

Designing a safer ride

Driver screenings

All potential Uber driver-partners must complete a review process that includes a review of photo ID and other relevant documentation to determine eligibility prior to being authorized to take trips through the app.

Features to help keep you safe

On every trip, you can tap a button for safety tools and get help whenever you need it.
